My bottle of G1 has done 3 cars front screen and still have over 1/4 left.
Just after some advice on my for sale advert. Had the car for sale but haven't sold it due to the optimistic price but have reduced it to what seems to be near market value. It's not bad spec but it's missing the speedlines that everyone seems to want (I prefer standard).
